yeah good one!

I have to admit, though, that I used to get more hypnotized by the new wave sound of the Real Life song of that same name. Link

It was in that movie "Rad" I liked in a younger day.


and

Beds Are Burning by Midnight Oil

You sir fail at life. Competent people don't remember 80s

 

[Tremulant]

My favorite song is "The Promise" by When in Rome.

"You're the best" is pretty awesome too though (from the Karate Kid movie)

edit: I didn't read the thread before posting, so I didn't see quasmo's post..

 

[invidia]

Rick Astley - Not gonna to give you up

 

[imported_Imp]

I'd say U2, but they were ahead of their time and didn't really sound all that '80s.

So I'll go and say:

T'ill Tuesday - Voices Carry ~Sounds even better live nowadays.
